Solid pay, average benefits, but letting AI take over and spy on employees is not “safety” it’s surveillance

Store manager

CEO approval

Business outlook

high stress and low morale

Marketing coordinator

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Continue investing in training and onboarding resources, especially for new team members learning multiple systems and processes at once. Creating even more opportunities for cross-team communication and feedback could also help employees feel even more supported and connected as the company continues to grow. Overall, maintaining the positive culture and collaborative environment is what makes the experience stand out.

Cons

High-stress environment, low morale across teams, limited work-life balance, and leadership styles that can feel outdated, overly harsh, and intimidating. Communication and employee support often felt lacking, and the company culture felt more corporate than creative despite being in the fashion industry. Professional growth and mentorship opportunities also seemed limited depending on the department.
